What does EFI stand for?

Components Or Technology That Increase Fuel Efficiency:- With the arrival of Electronic Fuel Injection Technology, the car drivers can be rest assured that they will enjoy an optimal fuel efficiency.

And for the first time, the Chennaibased motorcycle company is targeting the new generation -- departing from its tradition of catering to the 50- plus age bracket -- by marrying old- school styling with newer technologies such as unit- construction engine ( UCE) and electronic fuel injection ( EFI).

with Honda's electronic fuel injection system (PGM-FI(1)) and a catalyst device (catalyzer) installed in the muffler.

Fuel economy - The PGM-FI electronic fuel injection system and lean-burn(4) control during cruising(5) allow the BF60 to offer best-in-class(6) fuel economy.

Newer engines use an electronic fuel injection system whereby fuel and air are mixed more thoroughly in the pre-combustion chamber before entering the cylinder.

With the advent of clean-running electronic fuel injection, electronic ignition and improved engine design, air-injection systems have pretty much fallen by the wayside.

These days batteries and radiators are more or less maintenance-free and distributors and carbs have been replaced by electronic fuel injection.
